Suggest Possible Medication For Side Effects Of Typhoid Fever
I recently had the typhoid fever vaccine in England and have since found that the vaccines were faulty. I contracted the disease in July and was very sick and hospitalised. I recovered after about 2 weeks. What are the chances of the infection returning?

Dear Friend.
Hi , I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
Iam so sorry for whatever happened.
If properly treated, Typhoid fever rarely result in carrier state.
Usually no treatment or Monitoring is required.
Still, if you get fever in future, get your Widal test repeated and that would be compared to your previous report.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any query you may please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
